No one is forgetting you keep reminding us. It's irrelevant.

I'm thinking maybe pets are allowed with permission from the freeholders ? Maybe not but not sure the op is privy to that kind of info anyway.

When you live in a close knit community you should be very careful. Not the right attitude.

Don’t take life for granted, all it takes is your OH to rub up the wrong person and you cannot measure stupidity. Look at how people get stabbed and killed, or get kicked like a foot ball.

You never know old person may have son in gangland and decide to play football with your family, your OH won’t be able to complain to management from the grave.

I have seen in the local news people being killed for looking the wrong way, you just got to learn to live your life and not interfere with others.

No-one's forgetting that.

Bottom line is that as far as I can see OP wants to stay in this property and the tenancy is up for renewal.

Speaking from experience landlords on communal estates tend to want to keep on good terms with the ManCo/freeholder/whoever. If they start getting complaints then they may well go for the easy option - which is not to renew the tenancy.

Sometimes there are battles best not fought. It might be (to some) unfair that someone else is "getting away with something" but, in the end, OP has to decide what works best for her family. If that means they want to stay where they are then the husband has to swallow his pride and not go tit for tat.

In all honesty is it such a big ask to take the child and the football over to the local park if it means retaining a let where the family are happy and settled.

And, it is jointly owned land which is worth bearing in mind. A bit different to kicking a ball around on a public street - which many of us did when we were young!

What a strange attitude some people have... 'It's ok to play football wherever you want'.

In the communal hallways? Up against someone else's garage door? I know, how about using your neighbours garden or, better still, especially if it's raining, their lounge?

Ridiculous? Yes, obviously. But so is playing in someone else's car park, especially when you have been asked to stop.

If I was the OP I would be thinking, worryingly, about the person I had married. If they are that stubborn and pig-headed about something like this and are quite happy to upset the your neighbours, God help you if and when something more serious comes along.

YOU have to take control here, because obviously your partner is incapable. YOU know what is right and you need to tell him straight. For goodness sake, how far away is the local park? Just be firm, as if he were a child, and stand your ground - for your own sake in the future as well as his.

Highly likely there could be a majority vote of the owners to ask the landlord (owner) to serve notice on the tenants.

I agree

No one is responsible for another persons feelings, but we are responsible for the way we treat others - and having enough insight that being rude or selfish, may result in another person becoming unhappy.


Just my tuppence worth anyhoo

Anyway, OP - what did you decide to do about it all?

I hope you are OK.

This must be very worrying for you (despite all of the above talking about the rights and wrongs) it must be a difficult situation for you

Have you managed to speak to your OH/ get him see sense?

Of course it is, no point in taking the high horse saying you shouldn't be doing this (football) while neighbours are no different by parking in bays they shouldn't be.

It is irrelevant.

We (and that includes you) have no idea whether the people parking in the visitor/disabled spaces have permission to do so. The OP said that people do so, but does not state whether it is with permission or without.

The OP's husband does not have permission to play football in the car park - and 'official' signs have been put up saying that playing football is not allowed, following complaints by the other residents. Even the OP - his own wife - has asked him to stop.

There is a big difference between the two things, and even if they were equal, two wrongs does not make a right.
